Hi All/ Just getting started

Postby Wha2820 » Thu Dec 31, 2020 5:30 am

Hi everyone,

I am very new, I have received an old super re-flux condenser still from my grandfather and I am so glad I found this site before getting started as he gave me a heap of turbo crap to go with it. (dont worry it went in the bin and Im using TPW.)

Anyway i just wanted to say hello and Im sure Ill have a few questions as I get going in the coming weeks.

Cheers.

Turbo is good for a cleaning run.

Welcome to AD mate.

Newbies Corner is a great place to start if you're new to distilling. Kiwistillers guide to cuts is a must read.

It might be worth doing a cleaning run on the still if it's old, just to clear out any crud that may have accumulated and also to learn about running your still.

Cheers,
Prof. Green.

Welcome mate :greetings-waveyellow:

Throw a pic up of your unit and we can give you some tips on setting it up optimally - It may be the same one as my first still, I have a few tweaks for it, but there are a few different models by age under that name
